How it works

Proving dough
Always allow dough to prove in two steps: Once in their
entirety (1. – dough fermentation) and a second time in
the baking tin (2. – final fermentation).
Requirement:
The cooking compartment is cold.
1.
Dough fermentation:
‒
Slide the wire rack into the cooking compart-
ment.
‒
Place the dough in a bowl onto the wire rack.
‒
Use the recommended settings when configuring
the appliance settings.
‒
Do not open the appliance door while the dough
is proving, otherwise moisture will escape.
2.
Final fermentation:
‒
Continue processing the dough and turn it into
the final shape for baking.
‒
Place the dough in the specified shelf position.
3.
Wipe the cooking compartment dry before baking.

Defrosting
You can defrost frozen food in your appliance.
Tips for defrosting food
¡
You can use the "microwave" mode to defrost
frozen fruit, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish or baked
goods.
¡
Remove frozen food from its packaging before you
defrost it.
¡
Use heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware.
¡
The recommended settings are for freezer-temperat-
ure food (-18 °C).
¡
Defrosting works best if you divide it into more than
one step. The steps are listed one after the other in
the recommended settings tables.
¡
Stir or turn the food 1-2 times during defrosting.
Turn large items several times. Split the food into
smaller pieces as it defrosts.
Remove pieces that have already defrosted from the
cooking compartment.
¡
Once the food has defrosted, switch off the appli-
ance and leave the food in the appliance for another
10 to 30 minutes to allow the temperature to equal-
ise.
